- ThermiteTerrace, on 02/05/2009, -32/+920Once again Bill Gates releases something that's full of bugs.
- cathicks, on 02/04/2009, -5/+720Now THAT's viral marketing!
- mmittimm, on 02/05/2009, -2/+341Bill Gates: One of the few people who can afford a swarm of mosquitoes.
Seriously where do you even get that? - johnleemk, on 02/05/2009, -7/+310I can't be the only guy who immediately thought "Oh, The Onion! You guys...wait, what? This is real?"
- thelastcivilian, on 02/04/2009, -23/+279Billy G has gone ***** insane. I mean, this is actually kind of cool, but what's next - AIDS?
- rtaibah, on 05/22/2009, -24/+224Whats so weird about this? Bill loves bugs, we have known that for more than 20 years now....
- wontstoptalking, on 02/05/2009, -26/+214Bill Gates, right after you reached 11 on my awesome meter, YOU JUST MOVED UP TO 12!!!
- superm1ke, on 02/05/2009, -0/+177Ladies and Gentlemen I just infected you all with AIDS ... Now does anyone want to donate to research for a cure?
- Zaxcomp, on 02/05/2009, -1/+172You want a swarm of mosquitoes? I can get you a swarm of mosquitoes, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me. Hell, I can get you a swarm of mosquitoes by 3 o'clock this afternoon
- l800LEMMINGS, on 02/04/2009, -12/+183I think TED is probably the most unpretentious crowd ever, that said, this is still the funniest ***** ever!
- tigersinacage, on 02/05/2009, -20/+179That would have really bugged me.
- ctabone, on 02/05/2009, -6/+124Yea, that's as far down as I think I need to scroll. You won the thread.
- atarijedi, on 02/05/2009, -2/+119The best part is he didn't even bring them in a box, he just tilted his head upwards, opened his mouth, and the mosquitoes spilled forth like one of the 7 plagues!
- d3sapar3cid0, on 02/05/2009, -11/+112Bill Gates is basically just a badass.
- mynameistux, on 02/05/2009, -2/+70they are not bugs, they are features.
- GeezerD, on 02/05/2009, -2/+65How many versions did he release?
- cperry218, on 02/05/2009, -0/+59From the referenced article:
"UPDATE: Turns out he did actually release some mosquitoes into the audience, though organizers were quick to reassure that they weren’t malarial." - copypastry, on 02/05/2009, -2/+61Did someone get told?

Yes----------> OH SNAP - cr12345, on 02/05/2009, -16/+74Sadly, this made more sense than his MS commercials with Seinfeld.
And, those mosquito bites are far less painful than the commercials were. - hiperpinguino, on 02/05/2009, -40/+93Except for the whole bit about there not being any mosquitoes in the jar he opened...

It was a great reference too, laughed my ass off. - mrBitch, on 02/05/2009, -0/+44nice flowchart skills...
- ORBAT, on 02/05/2009, -2/+46"All of those mosquitoes are carriers of a genetically manipulated, fast-acting strain of malaria. Microsoft, however, has a handy malaria cure for sale for only 5000$. Think fast."
- Murdats, on 02/05/2009, -3/+45swarms-r-us?
- Pinkertinkle, on 02/05/2009, -1/+42Well I guess it really comes down to whether those mosquitoes were malaria infested or not.
- DBreeze, on 02/05/2009, -1/+41video?

2. Infect world's rich and brightest with malaria.
3. ???
4. Profit!
Sorry Bill. Somehow I think ??? will = "lawsuits" and not "Sudden R&D ramp up finds cures for malaria in record time". But one could hope. - MasterGrief, on 02/05/2009, -0/+28FORGET ABOUT THE ***** SWARM!
- skyjis6, on 02/05/2009, -4/+32This is why i love Gates... he's billions of dollars away from the "average man." Yet he still has these moments where he's a highschool science kid again. "hmmmmm, i think i'll release mosquitoes on my classmates..."
